About "lactation"

Lactation or breastfeeding is the process of nourishing the young one with milk secreted from the mammary glands. It is a process common to all mammals including humans.

Lactation specialists recommend that ideally nursing of the newborn should begin soon after the birth of the baby and continue for at least two years. The frequency should be decided as per the baby's demands.

Mothers can get help from specialists on doubts regarding techniques, position, frequency, volume, diet, nutrition, and supplements. Apart from the emotional satisfaction and bonding that it can provide, breastfeeding also carries a lot of health benefits for the mother and baby.
